Chapter 408 - High pitched!

The event at the dinner went smoothly. Not only did she finally managed to exchange number with the Female Lead— although she doubted that Jihae was insane enough to call her— Eunwoo did not spare the Female Lead a glance.

In other words, the legendary eye contact between the Female Lead and Male Lead that manage to make both of their hearts flutter did not happen.

About Eunwoo, he was too irritated at her by how everything went by that he rejected the invitation to her house. After all the efforts her now parents put into it, it was rather a pity.

Falling down on her bed, she rolled on it while anxiety was building within her. Her carefree nature was slowly starting to fade away.

She had underestimated the power of the fate to get the Female Lead and Male Lead to be together. The disadvantage laid in the fact that she was barely by the Male Lead's side, and other than the contents of the novels, there was no knowledge on where he could be.

The butterfly effect might increase the meeting between Jihae and Eunwoo at the end too.

There was no predicting how the things might turn out to be.

Moreover, both of them were deeply in love with each other at the end, and getting two individual who were so much infatuated with each other to not get involved was a tough job.

Sigh left her mouth, and she voiced out, "There is something that I need to think of. Ah! Come on! Come on! There needs to be a way around of it. All of my previous plans won't work! Ah!"

As she was in middle of rolling upon the bed, she slipped off on to the ground, and a wince escaped from her mouth as her body came in contact against the hard surface.

"F.u.c.k!" she exclaimed.

But as if that hit had opened up a path for her, she instantly sat up on the ground and exclaimed, "That's it!"

°°°

Maybe she had taken the decision in quite a hurry, but the the rare at which the Female and Male Lead's fate intertwined was not something she wanted to ever estimate again.

Therefore, swallowing all of her pride, she stood in front of the Male Lead's apartment. Staring at the keypad before her, she wondered what the passcode for it was.

The number was something 'Yoonmi' was aware of, but since it wasn't mentioned in the novel, Yoonmi did not know how to crack this. 

Because of how 'Yoonmi' treasured this, it would be strange of her to call Eunwoo and ask him about it. Moreover, from his personality, she doubted he would pick up the call.

The most weird fact about this was that 'Yoonmi' knew about the passcode and the fact that Eunwoo did not try to change it. The passcode to the Male Lead's apartment wasn't that simple to figure out.

His parents did not seem to be the type to give it away unless he was comfortable with it. In other words, he did not have a problem with 'Yoonmi' having the passcode and entering into her apartment.

Certainly, Yoonmi wasn't touched by it!

In fact, it caused her to feel quite aggravated.

Didn't this mean that he was giving false hope to 'Yoonmi'? He kept her hanging around like that for years when he could have simply let go of her. 

This would have allowed her to move on.

But no, he kept her around him despite knowing of her feelings for him, and when he got to know about the Female Lead, she was thrown away like a piece of trash.

Glaring at the door in front of her, she imagined it to be Eunwoo's face, and lifting her leg, she was about to kick on it when a certain voice took her off guard.

"What are you doing?"

Hearing that voice all of a sudden reminded her of how she was caught in the act, and taken by surprise, she lost her balance.

Lowering her leg, she stumbled a few steps backwards before stabilising herself and then, took in the appearance of the woman before her. It was strange how she hadn't managed to notice her footsteps.

Could it be because of distracted she was with cursing her mind at Eunwoo?

Seeing how the woman stood in front of Eunwoo's door meant that she had a relationship with the man, and that raised the possibility of 'Yoonmi' knowing her.

However, since there was a limit to how many characters the novel was able to describe— she didn't even remember most of the description in the first place— she found herself being at a state of confusion.

The woman before her seemed to be in her mid thirties thirties. She seemed too young to be his mother.

This made her feel most puzzled.

"I will just go," Yoonmi voiced out.

When she wasn't able to solve the situation, the best way was to avoid it. Thinking of herself as a genius for coming up with that, she was about to leave when the woman's voice stopped her.

"You can stay here for dinner if you want," the woman said, "Minhyun will be coming in a while as well, and we can have dinner as a family."

"F.u.c.k," Yoonmi muttered.

Turning back, she couldn't help but stare at the woman with widened eyes. The situation was too much for her to absorb in. That definitely confirmed the identity for her.

'How in the world does she even look that young!'

Blankly, she just stared at the woman, unable to comprehend the situation. Wanting to confirm the situation, she blinked her eyes multiple number of times and even rubbed them.

But because her ability to adapt to the situation was quite fast, she cleared her throat before she seemed weird and said, "Sure! Sure! That sounds great!"

Her voice seemed to be slightly more pitched than usual. But other than that, she acted completely composed.
